Chapter 342 Let’s keep hiding our profession.(2/2)
He said: "I understand you, but what do you think?"
Chen Xing took a lot of photos during this trip and kept his travel camera on hand.
If Erken needs it, Chen Xing will still make a meteorite hunter video for him as agreed. It just so happens that his career video has not been updated for a long time. The latest career is geographical surveyor. How long ago was that?
.
"I don't know."
Erken let out a long sigh.
Fortunately, Chen Xing couldn't understand what Marico said, otherwise it would be really embarrassing.
He really wanted to break away from his uncle's influence and become a better meteorite hunter. He wanted to prove to him that after he retired, he could still be on his own, chase the most beautiful star in the sky, and become the most beautiful star in the industry.
A top group of people.
Chen Xing is a well-known photographer in the world today. Not to mention his photos, his YouTube account also has more than two million followers.
If you publish a video about meteorite hunters, it will really push this industry to the forefront.
When the time comes, the name I will get...
It may be a good reputation for ordinary people, but for people who are already in this industry, it is mostly a reputation, right?
They could have made a fortune secretly, but now they have so many competitors that they let others know that they are rich.
I took a few bites of bread and drank half a bottle of yogurt.
After chewing, Erken made a decision.
"It's better not to post the video, I'm sorry."
"No, I didn't come here to look for meteorites with you just to post a video. I just wanted to satisfy my personal curiosity. No need to be sorry. Moreover, I don't want too many people to know the value of meteorites. I like to keep secrets..."<
/p>
If he himself is a vested interest, there is no need to ruin his job.
Chen Xing never thought that he was a good person who could give away the gold that he had hidden. Who knows whether the gold will be his in the future?
Maybe in the future, when he no longer has any interest in meteorites, he may make a video or use some other method to expose this industry.
But not now.
At night, the two slept in an outdoor tent. The only sleeping bag was given to Chen Xing. Chen Xing couldn't resist using this sleeping bag. This allowed him to sleep well that night. In the morning
Except for the slight pain in my neck when I woke up, I was not mentally exhausted at all.
Someone added firewood to the fire outside the tent, and it crackled, bringing warmth to the surroundings. Erken's bag was still outside, but he didn't know where he had gone.
Have you washed up?
Chen Xing took out a pack of mouthwash from his bag. This thing is much better than a toothbrush and toothpaste outdoors. He also took some bread from his backpack and baked it. I bought a bag of whole wheat bread on the road yesterday. It took a day.
I'm almost done eating.
It was about nine o'clock when Chen Xing saw Erken running towards Chen Xing excitedly with a stone.
Found a meteorite?
Chen Xing was also very excited. He stared at the black stone in his hand and asked when he came over: "Is this a meteorite?"
"Yes!"
He didn't bother to chat with Chen Xing. His eyes were bloodshot, but his expression was full of energy.
"Look, this black thing is the molten shell of a meteorite. You should know that meteorites are burned and worn when they fall from the sky, right? Only a very small amount can fall to the earth."
"Yeah."
Chen Xing must know these basics, but Erken only regards Chen Xing as a novice.
He brought the found meteorite to Chen Xing and asked him to take a closer look.
This is a meteorite the size of an old mobile phone. It feels a bit like a cylinder. It is not heavy. There is definitely no iron element in it. It is lighter than a stone of the same size.
It is estimated to be only 60 grams.
Without being able to talk about his core knowledge, Erken was happy to teach Chen Xing about the identification of meteorites.
"When a meteorite falls on the earth, it only takes a few years for its appearance to become the same as the surrounding rocks. My uncle once told me that this meteorite is a place where elves hide, and it has spirituality. This kind of newly fallen meteorite
Meteorites have this kind of black or dark brown shell, but just looking black is not enough. There are fine cracks on it, just like the cracks on your Chinese porcelain. They look like cracks, but they are not actually...
…”
"I have no way to cut this meteorite. If you can find a stone appreciation shop, you can ask them to help cut it. The cut should be able to see the unweathered interior, which is white. If it is an ordinary chondrite meteorite, you can
You will immediately see the uniform silver particles scattered on the exposed surface. This is a special alloy that is not very valuable, but the incision is very ornamental."
"It's really strange." Chen Xing said.
Of course he knows this knowledge, and after preliminary observation, this should be an ordinary chondrite.
But without instrument inspection, even Chen Xing can't really be sure.
Holding it in your hand, there is a feeling that makes your heart beat faster. I don’t know where this feeling comes from. Maybe it is the desire for the sky deep in human genes?
He returned the meteorite to Erken and said, "Congratulations."
Because finding a meteorite proves that there are more meteorites scattered around. If it is a small piece of the basketball-sized meteorite that disintegrated, then there may be dozens of meteorites around. This is a very good start.
It deserves a word of congratulations.
But Erken was unwilling to reach out for the meteorite and said, "No, no, no, you don't have to give it to me. This stone is for you."
